Grave Robber (Terrance Zdunich) holding a "little glass vial" of Zydrate. Notice the blue, glowing color, indicative of street zydrate. To use Zydrate, Grave Robber instructs "the little glass vial goes into the gun like a battery/ And the Zydrate gun goes somewhere against your anatomy/ And when the gun goes off, it sparks and you're ready for surgery..."

Zydrate is a highly addictive painkiller. Zydrate sold by GeneCo is quite expensive, but it has a cheaper, illegal counterpart on the black market, extracted from the dead. It is a blue, glowing liquid, stored most frequently in a little glass vial. Zydrate is administered via a Zydrate gun, usually to the inner thigh or shoulder, indicating it is most effective when injected into a muscle.
